Very few people have asked to stay at my place, which is nice. But don't all expect to just show up and have a place to stay. You need to be contacting me prior to the event so that I can figure out how many to accomodate and who I am accomodating.


1st dibbs:
-Any out-of-stater who needs logding (Idaho, Oregon, Washington, TX, AZ, Nevada? etc.) Canadians too.
2nd dibbs:
-people from far away who have contacted me about staying at my place
3rd dibbs:
-people who wait until the last minute and have no where else to sleep

List of peeps so far hoping to crash at my place (or peeps I will accomodate if needed):
-Nate Linscott
-entire Boise crew
-Nick Landes
-Kyle Hewitt (wherever he's from)
-Theodore Anderson
-Cammel
-Joe Crain and GF, and Lon
-Ken Somolinos (if he comes)
-Dustin Rhodes
-Ahren German
-Rob Adams, brother, and son (Sunday only)



People I haven't heard word from (or maybe I've fotgorren about them?):
-Mike Hansen (did we already talk about where you were staying?)
-Chad D.
-Chris P.
-Redondo Crew
-Eric Palmer
-Tsiangkun
-Bryan Fournier

If you want to be on either of these lists, you better talk with me fast because I already count the possibility of 18 peeps, which is a lot.

hahahaha ohhhh MAN this is gonna be sick. I'm praying to the gods of tiger balm and ice that my back is better in time.

Kyle: Tell your mom she's wrong. Everything footbag related is good. If all else fails, chloroform will do the trick.

:lol:

Can't wait! :D

"I was thinking to myself, "Emily, Fletch and Jeremy, where do you find these weirdos?" Then I remember that you live in Santa Cruz. I answered my own question."




Aahahahahahaa. I will take you fishing if you want Jim.


*Edit* Oh yeah, I've got crashing space for the redondo people. I'm not sure but I think only 2 or 3 people are coming from there.

Other critical information:

*There is about a 95% chance that there will be footbag net played on one or both days of the event on a grass field right outside the auditorium. SO, if any of you freestylers also dabble in net, bring your shoes and your game! I expect that about 3-5 local Santa Cruz net players will make it out and we're hoping that between 1 and 3 net players from the Chaos Crew will also make it. Chad D . . . will you be ready for a match?!

I think I'll be the only Redondo kid coming out for the jam..because my other friends are either working or are going to prom (even though they've graduated high school.....).

I haven't registered yet because my knees are all EFFed..I've been going to physical therapy 3x a week, so I doubt I'll be able to shred. I will be in attendance no matter what, though it's looking like I'll just be hanging out.

I will, however, be bringing Chad with me. There is a possibility Chris Pinkus will ride with us, too...which would be super sweet. I'll post more as information continues to reveal itself.

An excerpt, from the Alphabet of Manliness,
N is for... CHUCK NORRIS

Chuck Norris eats rocks and shits lightning bolts. One time Chuck Norris was walking around in the forest, looking for hippies to use as firewood, when a wild boar suddenly crossed his path. Big Mistake. Chuck lifted the boar into the air with his mind, spun him around, and digested him telekinetically. And Chuck wasn't even hungry.

If you don't know who Chuck Norris is, he's the world champion in tae kwon do, jiujitsu, kickboxing, karate, sumo wrestling, tae bo, pad thai, street fighter II, and he holds a certificate of participation in the national spelling bee. Chuck Norris has no weakness; he is the ultimate fighting machine. One time, a big shot movie producer approached Chuck Norris with a screenplay starring him versus King Kong, Gidorah, Dracula, Satan, Charles Bronson, and that Russian Boxer from Rockey IV. The movie was never made though because studios felt that it was too far fetched, since bobody but nobody stands a chance against Chuck Norris. When Chuck found out, he was so furious that the producer had to offer his daughter's virginity to appease him. Chuck accepted the offer and then torched the producer's family in their sleep. The producer wrote Chuck a "thank you" letter for sparing his life, which Chuck promptly crumpled up and urinated on.

Here is a list of Chuck's favorite foods:

Whiskey

Sometimes when Chuck gets tired of whiskey, he'll eat bread, cheese, some tomato paste and a handful of basil, which sounds like a pizza, but it's not because Chuck Norris doesn't want to give the italians the credit.

A day in the life of Chuck Norris

The word "day" is a bit misleading when talking about Chuck Norris because a day in his life is less ike the twenty-four-hour day most people associate with the word, and more like an eon god describes as a day during creation of the universe: Chuck Norris starts his day like every red-blooded man: with a giant boner. After rubbing one off, Chuck floses his teeth with steel wool. Then he eats a bowl of dynamite, takes a massive two-flush megashit, and wipes his ass with intercepted letters to Santa Claus.
After breakfast, Chuck brings in his mail and uses the Spear of Destiny as an envelope opener. Chuck Norris not only stays up to date on current events but future ones as well so that he can ruin the ending to new Harry Potter books before they're even written.
One time, Chuck Norris read a news piece about some guy who was given a death penalty for treason. Treason is especially offensive to Chuck because he embodies everything that is, was, or ever will be American. Chuck Norris loves America so much that when he gets interrupted during sex, he gets red, white, and blue balls. So when Chuck read about this traitor, he killed himself, wen tto hell and ripped the guy's face off and uses it as a loinclith to this day. Chuck then ressurected himself, went to lunch, and paid for his food using exact change. In the evening, Chuck Norris likes to sit in the dark and silently pray that his enemies get cancer.

Although I don't want to jinx it . . .

rather than having 20 people or so like we were expecting when we first decided to have this event, it looked more like we would get about 35 or so! However, now it looks more like we will have about 50 or more people attending. This will likely be the largest jam/tournament in California since Western Regionals 5 years ago or so! Awesome. I would like to thank everyone who is coming from out of state. We really appreciate your support!


Everyone post your flight times NOW!

For Kyle Hewitt and friend:

So, here’s what it looks like. From the Oakland airport, you’ll need to: 1) take a shuttle called the AirBART which costs $2 (use exact change or buy an AirBART ticket for 2 bucks), takes about 15-30 minutes, and drops you off in front of the Coliseum/Oakland Airport BART Station on San Leandro Blvd.

From San Leandro, Blvd., you will need to find the correct BART train that takes you to Fremont (a city south of you). It looks like there are two types of train lines that head to Fremont, orange and green, and they leave approx. every 10 minutes. Depending on the exact time you decide to leave San Leandro, you will need to take either a green or an orange “Fremont train”. This leg of your journey will cost exactly $3. The link below gives you the schedule of BART trains heading down to Fremont on the morning of June 9th at approx 9:30 AM:

Don't sweat it, this will be a fairly easy process. PM me if you want /need to.
